Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 garlic clove, finely grated
4 tsp olive oil
½ lemon, zested and juiced
¾ tsp dried oregano
250g lean pork tenderloin, cut into chunks
1 onion, finely chopped
85g brown basmati rice
½ tsp dried mint
1 tsp vegetable bouillon powder
2 tbsp chopped fresh dill
3 tomatoes, chopped
10cm chunk of cucumber, chopped
1 red onion, halved and thinly sliced
4 Kalamata olives, halved
1 tsp red wine vinegar
25g feta, crumbled

Steps:

  • Mix the garlic with 2 tsp of the oil, the lemon zest and 1 tsp juice, lots of black pepper, and ½ tsp oregano in a large bowl. Tip in the pork and mix so the meat is well coated. Set aside to marinate for 30 mins if you have time.
  • Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a non-stick pan. Add the chopped onion, cover and cook for 5 mins, then remove the lid and stir in the rice, dried mint and bouillon. Pour in 300ml boiling water. Cover and cook for 30-35 mins until the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Stir in the dill and a squeeze of lemon juice.
  • Meanwhile, heat the grill to high or light your barbecue. Thread the pork onto two skewers. Mix the tomatoes, cucumber, red onion and olives in a bowl with the remaining oregano, vinegar, remaining oil and a squeeze of lemon. Pile onto plates and top with the feta.
  • Grill the souvlaki for about 4 mins each side until they are cooked, but still juicy. Serve with the salad and rice.
